Chapter 163: The Importance of Vic
…
The second day.
Qin Mo stood in the fortress hall, looking at the internal situation of the celestial engine through the holographic image.
Gray and Yaoen stood behind Qin Mo, watching with him.
The celestial engine has just been built halfway, and from the outside it looks like two satellites orbiting a relatively small planet.
The core of the planetary part of the Celestial Engine is the labyrinth containing the Nightbringer fragments, as well as the energy supply and gravity-generating device that uses the energy of the Nightbringer fragments.
The outer circle is the barracks used to station the army, warehouses for ordnance supplies, and giant dimension engines plus tens of thousands of shield generators.
This is still an unfinished stage, which means that the planet only has a core and a mantle, and a more massive crust is still under construction.
There is no "crew" in the Celestial Engine. The only person responsible for controlling the Celestial Engine is a stone man who always stays in the core of the Celestial Engine.
A stone man is enough to complete a series of tasks such as controlling the celestial engine, deploying drones for maintenance, and dimensional navigation.
Gathered in this unfinished celestial engine are a hundred regiments of troops from two worlds in the Tyrone galaxy, totaling about 70 million people. However, once the personnel arrive, other miscellaneous weapons, equipment, and materials have to wait to be shipped slowly.
Everything was very efficient, except for one thing that slowed down the mobilization, and that was food, because food had to be shipped from other agricultural worlds in the sector, and there was not enough food available in the Tyron system to sustain the long-term consumption of 70 million people.
"I have something to tell you." Qin Mo turned his head and looked at Gray and Yaoen.
The two men nodded immediately and listened quietly.
"When you arrive at the forge world of Agrippina, you will not only be responsible for defending a forge world, but it may take several years before you can return."
"Don't do extraneous things. As long as you follow my orders step by step, you will win. Don't be distracted by anything."
After giving these two instructions, Qin Mo was silent for a few seconds and then said to Gray alone: "You are now teleporting to the celestial engine to meet the soldiers you will command."
"Yes." Gray nodded and immediately turned around and left.
When Yaoen was the only one left in the hall, Qin Mo told him something that only a soulless person could listen to: "You may encounter a plague fleet, the kind that looks very green and smelly... don't follow them.
Fighting in close combat, the Nurgle plague is no joke. It is possible that your metal bodies will be transformed into rotten flesh by the virus."
"I know." Yaoen nodded.
In the past two years, he has not always stayed in the Tyrone Galaxy. When corrosion occurred in other surrounding galaxies, he also needed to lead the Soulless soldiers that Klein collected from various places to clean up. However, as the
As time goes by, there are now fewer and fewer cases of corrosion in the entire Tyrone sector.
Yaoen already has experience dealing with chaos.
"I haven't finished speaking yet." Qin Mo thought for a while and continued to give instructions: "There is another kind of enemy that we may encounter. Among these enemies are the traitorous Astartes. Their symbol is two very long helmet decorations.
They look like rabbit ears. They are called World Eaters and they are extremely good at close combat. If you want to fight them, you'd better keep Gray and the others away."
Yao En nodded again. He estimated in his heart that the so-called World Eaters were just like the Brave Champion followers who appeared in the hive world before. They were a group of war-crazy lunatics.
"Then there's nothing more to say, let's go." Qin Mo patted Yaoen's shoulder.
"Yes." Yaoen nodded and turned to leave, but he came back after just a few steps. "We don't have the means to communicate across galaxies for the time being. What if there is something that needs to be reported?"
"Let's make do with the messenger ship first, and I will come up with the communication method as soon as possible." Qin Mo said.
The development and use of inter-galactic communication technology was also in Qin Mo's plan, but time was too short and before it could be built, people had to be sent to protect the Forge World and Vic.
"By the way, do you remember Priest Vic of the Mechanicus? You must ensure his safety. His safety priority is above that of the Forge World."
When Yaoen was about to leave, Qin Mo suddenly gave another instruction.
Yaoen didn't understand the importance of Vic's Mechanicus priest, but since it was an order, he would complete it at all costs.
…
at the same time.
Agrippina Forge World.
The entire planet has been transformed like a factory. There is always a thick layer of black fog in the sky. Huge factories like mountains and rivers can be seen everywhere in the world. Molten iron flows like rivers on the continental plates. Every corner of the planet
All can hear the binary ode to the Ohm Messiah, the God of All Machines, and the Primordial Force.
In the foundry called the Glory of the Ohm Messiah, tens of millions of skitarii are setting up defense here.
Holding the gear scepter, Vic walked between the positions and walked towards the highest level of the foundry.
"Good evening sage."
"Praise be to Om Messiah."
"Sage Vic."
Whether they were the soldier-chaplains of the Skitarii or others, whether they were juniors or peers, everyone saluted and greeted Vic as he passed by, and Vic nodded to them.
After countless greetings and countless nods, Vic arrived at the top of the foundry and met the ruling sage of the forging world.
"You're late, Pastor." The ruling sage looked at Vic. His voice was electronic, and his entire face had been modified without any flesh, but Vic could hear the dissatisfaction in his words.
Vic is indeed still a priest. He will only hear the honorific title of sage from his subordinates or colleagues, but his superiors still call him priest.
The reason why Vic is respected by his colleagues and subordinates is that he is selfless, sharing the stc template for batch printing of crystals in the name of sharing the gift of Ohm Messiah.
Vic even shared all the results of his research on artificial crystals. Anyone who is a member of the Adeptus Mechanicus can obtain this knowledge for free and get Vic's answers when they have questions.
So although Vic is still a priest, he is already a sage in the eyes of others, a selfless and great sage.
"The Imperial Navy has withdrawn." The ruling sage stood with his hands behind his hands, staring at the holographic image device on the table. "If nothing goes wrong, we may have to face the coming invasion ourselves."
This holographic device was also a personal gift from Vic, showing all situations inside and outside the Forge World.
"We are not alone, the Messiah of Ohm is with us," Vic said.
The ruling sage rolled his eyes at Vic, then pointed to the southern end of the forging world displayed in the holographic image and ordered: "I need you to go to the foundry here to mobilize a group of guards and send them to us. The entire forging world is in danger now.
They may not be willing to part with people, but I believe you can do it and use your good name to do it."
"Yes, Sage." Vic nodded.
I can't stand it anymore, brothers
